Summary: packed with valuable information
Review: A great reference and entertaining read for any Mac user, from beginner to advanced. I'm a voracious reader of books about Mac hardware and software, and I still picked up some great tips and insights. Best of all, the book is written in a lively, friendly style. Highly recommended.

Summary: Easy to follow - Leads you in to using MAC from square 1
Review: Excellent book! Well written and superbly done. This book takes you from the very beginning user all the way through to being able to find problems. The most helpful areas are the ideas and links to products. Great tips and shortcut ideas. Super for both the beginner and the expert. A must have for anyone who plans on using the MAC. Easy to read and follow, this book is not "boring" like so many computer books. I would recommend this to anyone.

Summary: This is THE BEST Mac book!
Review: I got my first Mac ever about a year and a half ago, being a PC person before that. Being a book fanatic, I used this Mac purchase as an excuse to go out and buy lots of Mac books! The Mac Bible was one of the first I bought. It still remains the book I consult most often.I found it had an absolutely fabulous "history of Mac" section, so I was able to catch up on all the Macs through history. I was keenly interested in that, and still am. I love to read about the old LCs, and such. (Yes, I'm a pathetic geek.) But there's more to that to this book. Just lots of explanations on OS features, different kinds of problems you'll encounter, and some of the best software to use on a Mac. It has a great index, so you can find the information you need quickly. I have it by my Mac at all times. What would I do without it? I can't explain it - this book has EVERYTHING. I read it eagerly (I even had it before I got my Mac! I ordered the Mac, and read this book while waiting for it to arrive.) This book helped me adjust to the world of Mac-dom very quickly. And now, a year and a half after my first Mac, I am a full-fledged Machead, thanks in part to this book.

Summary: Probably the single most useful mac book on the market.
Review: I have been using macs for about ten years and had read earlier editions of the mac bible and loved them. But after becoming an old mac hand (ignorance is bliss!) I had stopped feeling the need for newer editions of the mac bible. But last week my mother bought her first ever computer, a really sweet G3 Powerbook, and in preparation for flying across the country to tutor her I went shopping for some reference books to give us a hand. I bought the Mac Bible, the Mac OS 8.5 Black Book, and the Microsoft Office 98 Visual Basic Book. The Mac Bible is far and away the most helpful of the bunch. Easiest to read, most in depth and with valuable opinions, real life applications and a sense of humor. In fact I decided to return the Black Book and buy a Mac Bible for myself to take home.

Summary: "Bible" is apt...
Review: I have to admit, from the outset, that I am not a Mac person. I am a PC tech trying to service one of the only Mac's I will probably work on this year. I have a copy of the Mac Bible. It is huge! That's not bad if it is useful. The problem I am having is finding what I need while I have to wade through the barrels of verbage that are useless to me. I finally had to resort to scouring the Web to find my answers. I guess I'm used to the more direct, almost cookbook approach to troubleshooting and setup. To be fair, and thats why I gave the book two stars instead of one, I realize that the different chapters are written by different authors, so the content and style will vary. Unfortunately for me the sections I needed were written by authors I would rather not consult in the future.

Summary: A most comprehensive and even funny Mac book
Review: I taught computer classes at a high school and had every sort of Mac from the SE/30 to IMac in the same room. This book helped me with every computer, with every problem, and stopped many classroom disasters. The format is easy, the index very complete, and you will never need another book for your Mac but this one! The fact that it is concisely and even humorously written is a bonus!

Summary: The Excel chapter is fabulous
Review: I wrote parts of the Spreadsheet chapter. I tried to demystify spreadsheets, especially Excel, and I think I did it. If you've never used Excel you'll know how after reading the spreadsheet chapter in The Macintosh Bible 6th edition.

Summary: Just as good as the last 5 editions.
Review: It has some thing for every skill level. Beginer to Pro. It is clear and to the point. With very little page filler. You get lots of book for your buck. The CD-ROMs you get with it are ok. If I had it to do over, I would have skipped the CD-ROM verson of the book. A good book
